Free to a home- doesn't have to be good!


Urchin a black, feral kitten (not quite 1).

He won't let you cuddle him.
He attacks you feet if they so much a peep from under the duvet.
He wakens up and starts thundering through the house at 3 in the morning.
He opens your cupboard doors and drags you clothes from them.
His latest trick is to also open drawers and drag your underwater through the house.

I know most people won't be interested because of his colour, black but try to see past this, he is sleek and shiny!

aww he sounds like he can be tamed to reveal a lovely little boy. CHarlie was feral after a year he came round and loved his fusses and cuddles and sleeping on my bed.

Sounds as if you've had it up to {} with the wee lambkin, farthing! Are you sure he's not a dog? The clothes dragging is very dog behaviour! (She says with authority, having just got her first puppy )

The toes under the duvet though - that's cat, definitely.

Re: Free to a home- doesn't have to be good!


Sounds like my Denis....with lots of love patience and time he became a real cuddle bug and believe me he is called Denis for a reason!!
I dont like the fact that you have put ....the home doesnt have to be good!! Whats that supposed to mean?? surely the poor mite is entitled to live in a good home and if you are looking to rehome him then I suggest you ensure he goes to a good home as it will add to his problems, could end in abuse or further abandonment

Re: Free to a home- doesn't have to be good!


Am I missing something, I took Farthing's post to be a desperation joke

I'm sure Farthing isn't the type of person to give up on any difficult animal.

No, it was only a joke, sorry I thought most people knew what we were like.
Even though he has dragged my pants through the house he is not being rehomed, it was meant to give people a laugh at the things that happen here. He has improved dramatically considering Mike nearly ended up in hospital because of him.

I do appologise Farthing The post reminded me so much of Denis that I immediately got defensive.

It is though you really could be writing about him..he too was feral and a nightmare for the first 3 years to be honest he is still jumpy, can be aggressive but does love a good cuddle and tummy tickle now and is really a mummys boy deep down

I appologise again and hope I havent offended you

Re: Free to a home- doesn't have to be good!


I took it as a jokey post too, farthing; knew you'd never give up on one of yours. He's come a long way ...........
